Difference between Strategy tester and demo account

 

Hello

 

I have some difference between the strategy tester and my demo account

 

Here the strategy tester :

85 2013.03.15 05:00 buy 29 0.01 96.135 0.000 0.000 0.00 450.94
86 2013.03.15 05:00 modify 29 0.01 96.135 95.920 96.524 0.00 450.94
87 2013.03.15 08:00 close 29 0.01 96.011 95.920 96.524 -1.29 449.65

 Deal open at 5am at 96.135

Deal close at 8am at 96.011 => profit -1.29
 

here the terminal for the demo account :

2013.03.15 05:00buy0.01usdjpy96.02295.91996.3002013.03.15 08:0096.0100.000.000.00-0.12

 

The open date are the same, but not the price, and not the profit.

 

Any idea which one is the more reliable ?

 

Thanks

That depends on allot of factors like code, data, execution, test-settings, etc. Don't expect exact same results in tester as live & vice-versa.

Buy trade is opened at Ask price
